Details:
Deriving its name from the Dakota words for "water good", Lake Minnewashta Regional Park is a good water destination for a day at the beach, canoeing or fishing. This 340 acre park, which is managed by Carver County, has family-friendly amenities that include the beach, a fun playground, biking and hiking trails, a dog park and space to picnic. This four-season park offers beautiful spring and fall views and winter activities like skiing, snowshoeing and ice fishing.
In December of 2019, Carver County eliminated vehicle and dog park permits at this park.
